Degree of Hallux Valgus Is Associated With Dynamic Foot and Knee Kinematics in Ballet Turnout Movements

Puntos clave

• Hallux valgus is significantly associated with altered foot kinematics during ballet turnout.
• The study shows distinct changes in knee kinematics linked to varying degrees of hallux valgus.
• Observational analysis of dynamic foot and knee movements during ballet technique sessions provided key insights.
• Understanding these dynamics may help improve training methods and reduce injury risks in ballet dancers.
